Steve Winwood - I Washed My Hands In Muddy Water Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I was born in macon, georgia, met my dad in a macon jail
  • He said, son, if you keep your hands clean
  • You wont have them bloodhounds on your trail
  • I fell in with bad companions, robbed a man in tennessee
  • Sheriff caught me way up in nashville
  • And they locked me up and they threw away the key
  • Refrain:
  • I washed my hands in muddy water
  • I washed my hands but they didnt come clean
  • Tried to do what my daddy told me
  • But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream
  • I asked the jailer when my times up, he said, son, we wont forget
  • If you try to keep your hands clean
  • We may make a good man of you yet.
  • I couldnt wait to do my sentence, I broke out of the nashville jail
  • I just crossed the line of georgia
  • And I can hear those bloodhounds on my trail
  • Refrain (2 times)
